Willow Class Movies summer 2018

Willow Class spent 2 days learning about stop-motion animation. We watched popular examples by the Ardman studios and Oliver Postgate and then the children worked in small groups to explore the technique for themselves. After practicing with simple changing patterns made from construction kits, they graduated onto mini stories with simple plot lines. Despite the final movies only lasting a matter of seconds, the children spent considerable time moving their characters bit by bit and taking many photos. We are very proud of the final results!
